We host seven different energy centers in our bodies. Scientific research and some spiritual traditions cite that each energy center corresponds to a particular stage of life. This experiential retreat at Prairiewoods (120 East Boyson Road in Hiawatha) will invite women of all ages to deeper understanding of the body’s energies and engage meditative practices to integrate the mind, body and spirit for healing and wholeness. Utilizing wisdom from many resources, among them, The 7 Healing Chakras: Unlocking Your Body’s Energy Centers by Brenda Davies, M.D., retreatants will potentially move through past experiences to rest in the present and animate possibility. This weekend retreat will be facilitated by Tammy Bayer and Ann Jackson, PBVM. Tammy Bayer brings an enthusiasm for life to all of her work. She has a background in education and over 20 years of experience as a doula working with growing families. Tammy is a yoga and meditation teacher and a retreat leader who finds joy in supporting women through transformative life experiences. Ann Jackson, PBVM, is Prairiewoods’ coordinator of spiritual services and blends eco-spirituality, literature and leadership in service to individual spiritual direction and group facilitation. Ann delights in listening with others to the energy of Spirit stirring creativity, passion, discernment and service. The cost of this weekend retreat is $230 and includes sessions, lodging and all meals. The commuter fee is $180 and includes Saturday lunch and dinner and Sunday lunch.
